Former Bruins EX Bruins Discussion Thread Part II All Talk Here..

[sarge88]

Savvy had his number retired the other night by the Oshawa. That's nice. I'd like to see him at the garden again, I never understood why they couldn't get him as an honorary captain in the playoffs...

Wonder if it has anything to do with him technically still being a member of another NHL team?

Bingo !

Seems to me some guys are just biologically more prone to injuries than others. Sure luck has a lot to do with it, but every player is getting bumped and slammed all the time, some go their whole careers and barely miss any games, others miss 20 a season for one reason or another

A report came out 5 years ago that a number of outlets picked up saying he has some kind of congenital hip condition that would carry with it many lower body type injuries over his career. I think he and his camp denied it, though, so who knows?

I think this pic of a certain Ex-Bruin was taken at a certain baseball park named after a certain Global Mod in here.

Paille signs with Brynäs in SHL

Had almost forgotten about this and forgot to check his progress. Didn't notice him much when my team beat Brynäs, but apparently Pie is PPG in his 6 games so far (2+4, including going 2+1 in a game against a good team in Luleå). Good for him! Will be interesting to see how he'll do the rest of the season.

Colborne with a hat trick against Dallas in his first game as a Avalanche.

Campbell suspended for not reporting to a minor league team after Columbus sent him down. Apparently they tried trading him before waivers but no takers. Still going to try trading him.

Thats awesome, good for him!

Didn't realize that Bart was back in Providence with 2 points in the first 2 games.

I see the Stars commitment to playing stingy D is in mid season form

I still think the Jones trade was horrible and one of worst mistake of bruins, (after seguin)

I 'heart' him...

Tough to get a read on Hamilton on the Flames board. Some of their fans are against moving him at all, while others suggest his lackluster play in his own zone is reason enough to move him. Maybe he really does just lack hockey IQ.

Some very obvious talent and some mind boggling dumbness mixed in with some maddening passiveness.

They seem to have pretty good patience with him. Maybe they're fine with him playing ~19 minutes a night (16 against STL and CHI) and taking a minor penalty per game with less than stellar offensive or defensive stats for close to 6M a year. Or maybe they just expect him to develop a lot.

Loui taking the heat in Vancouver after a 9 game 0 goal start. Has been taken off the Sedin line and paired with Sutter after the entire line being criticized for being too slow and unproductive. The fanbase is also pounding the Sedins and I agree. Always get what you can before they are worth nothing. It's always about the organization,not the individual.

Umm... he has definitely scored a goal this season!

I still think the Jones trade was horrible and one of worst mistake of bruins, (after seguin)

Jones: 5-3, 2.15 GAA, .916 Save% (on a good team)

Rask: 4-0, 1.25 GAA, .958 Save% (on a team with a poor D)


Awful deal.

 

[BNHL]

Loui now the target in Vancouver after their 9th straight loss and a 13 0-4-4 start.

Frederic may give the B's the last laugh. Only time will tell. That being said, too bad Jones didn't play like this last year.

Now.

Jones - 5-6-0, 2.56 GAA, .900 Sv%, 0 SO

Rask - 7-1, 1.74 GAA, .941 Sv%, 2 SO

Seidenberg 4G 4A 8 pts and +10 in first 13 games. Didn't expect that.

Good for Seids. Good guy and team mate. I am happy for him.

I have never been so right about anything on this board ever.

And yes, I feel very confident saying that less than a quarter of the way through the year.

No one did. Not even Garth Snow.

Good for Seids. From the scrap heap to the WCOH to playing well on the Islanders.
